Chimney Liner Installation
This appliance is for installation with 4" diameter Type-B gas vent (B-
Vent) or double wall aluminum flex liner.
n Install flex liner or B-Vent inside the masonry chimney all the way
to the top of the chimney cap. (See Figure 3.) Use the vent plate
(supplied with the Hotshot) to connect the chimney liner to the
insert. Slide the flex over the vent plate and attach with two sheet
metal screws. Make sure the flange on the bottom of the vent
plate is toward the back of the fireplace. See figure 4a.
n Slide the Hotshot as far back as possible into the fireplace
opening. Reach inside the opening above the Hotshot and
insert the vent connector into the slot at the back of the
fireplace. Push the connector slide back as far as it will go to
secure the chimney liner in position. See figure 4b.
n Center the Hotshot in the fireplace opening, and connect the
gas line. (See Installing Gas Line).
n To install the face plate and louvres, see Installing Face Plate &
Trims in this instruction guide.
All installations must conform with local codes. In the absence of local
codes, installations must conform with the most recent version of the
National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1-1988) or the Gas Installation
